Air Jordan 3 True Blue 2026

The 2026 Air Jordan 3 Retro OG 'True Blue' marks the latest return of a colorway first released in 1988 — one of the original four Air Jordan 3 colorways and the first in the Jordan lineage not to feature Bulls team colors. The shoe gained further distinction as the first to feature the Jumpman logo and appeared in Nike's inaugural Mars Blackmon commercials. The elephant print overlays, integrated at MJ's personal request, have remained a defining design detail across every retro, including releases in 2001, 2011, and 2016. Like the 1988 original and 2016 OG retro, this 2026 version restores the Nike Air branding in place of the Jumpman on the tongue and heel. The low-top build features a white tumbled leather upper with perforations at the toe box, Cement Grey elephant print overlays at the toe cap and heel counter, and True Blue accents on the midsole wedge, lace eyelets, and heel tab. A visible Air unit sits in the heel within a white speckled midsole, above a Black rubber outsole.
